Evening Rotary giving free books to students

Watertown Evening Rotary is making sure students at North Elementary have something to read this summer.

Representatives from the club will hand out a book to each child at the school during two assemblies at 9 and 9:30 a.m. today.

The books are theirs to keep! said rotary member Charles V. Berkman in an email. The purpose is to hopefully instill a lifelong love of reading in the children. Not to mention it gives them something to keep and read over and over this summer and beyond.
